All Indians are welcome. We'll discuss India related stuff (news, pop culture, trending stuff, youtubers, etc.) and share Indian language videos. 

You should write the name of your state too. I'm from Bihar. 

Pakistanis and Bangladeshis are also welcome.

Aren't the guidelines to only post in English?

This is an autonomous group only for Indians, Pakistanis, etc. If Leo has any problem, he'll tell me. Guidelines don't include all the possible nuances. 

I had requested Leo to create a group, he told me to create a thread and I'll treat it like a group.

Anyone can post here. So it's not only for certain people. But mostly you can make it about local stuff.

Let's say that foreign language videos are allowed here but type your text in English.

I was hesitant to post here as @Leo Gura told that identifying with a national identity is a trap. 😂 However , @Candle and modes make sure that this thread doesn't turn into a dualistic cultural war. Haha.

No one is identifying with a national identity. I'm not a patriotic person. I just want to discuss relevant stuff to people. I can't share Indian matters/news with Americans, they won't care about it, even if it's juicy. 

Which state you belong to? @Rishabh R

@Candle ok but could you add hindi videos with subtitles of English as most of them won't understand. You share advices from self-improvement teachers.

Let's say I post about the gandmarai of Ashneer Grover in Bigg Boss 18. Who cares? Only Indians. 

Or about Carryminati. 

This is an off topic group but Leo told me to create this in this personal dev sub-forum.

Haha 😂 .Who is telling you to post  these things but relevant news like a catastrophe , elections , crimes, economy etc.  these are the topics that you can make separate posts on the Government ,society, politics section. Your answer made me laugh when I read it carefully. Here you can share personal development topics such as Sandeep Maheshwari , Acharya Prasanth ( which you have already shared), Desi philosopher etc.

I wanted to post this channel here. It's a gem with not much reach. It's in Hindi.

Especially the "ज्ञानमार्ग" Playlist on his channel. It goes into Metaphysics and Epistemology in a way I haven't seen been done on YouTube in Hindi.

I am glad that you are from Bihar . I have seen the film Gangaajal which depicts the poor law and order issues in Bihar,possibly the least developed state in India .  I think a major problem is the very low police to population ratio in Bihar compared to other states. 

Unstable governments and poor administration is also one of the reasons why Bihar got so messed up.

Hope things are getting better over there.  It is the land which gave birth to Buddha, Mahavira and Guruji Gobind Singh, so it has a great past but sad present. :(

@Ajay0 Whole India is messed up and fucked up. Root cause : illiterate or ignorant population. 140 crore population. (1.4 billion). The inertia they have (ham nahi sudharenge). 

Bihar and UP both are worst among all states. Delhi has incredible levels of pollution. 

People blame the Government, but it's just the reflection of the population. Every political party is shitty. It's not like Kamala vs Trump here. There is no Kamala here. Of course, Kejriwal is way better than hypocrite Modi.

Look how much Modi markets himself (first time in Indian history, a Prime Minister has done so much marketing, created a celeb like image of himself). Meets all Bollywood actors and Gamers and gives prizes to big Youtubers. Bought all media sources. Spread too much "Hinduism" "Hinduism". Too much toxic hindu nationalism. 

80% of the population votes based on religion. This is real data. 

So it's not the job of one revolutionary like Acharya Prashant. It's the job of the whole population. Or at least all like-minded people should be united.

They are not united, that's why all the powers go to those who are united (corrupt and evil men).

These are the root causes. That's it. We lack unity.
